FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LOCK IS UNLOCKING WHEN ALL THE OTHER DOORS ARE LOCKED AND LOCKING WHEN THE OTHER DOORS ARE UNLOCKED, I CANNOT LOCK ALL THE DOORS ON THE CAR AT THE SAME TIME LEAVING THE CAR AND PASSENGERS VULNERABLE TO THEFT WHEN DRIVING OR WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED. *JS

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
MY HONDA CRV 2014 - FROM A STOP IT HESITATES WHEN I ACCELERATE, NOTHING HAPPENS, THEN IT JUMPS AHEAD. THIS HAPPENS ALMOST ALL THE TIME. I FEEL THIS IS A DANGEROUS DEFECT. I AM AFRAID TO GO ON A HIGHWAY RAMP WHEN YOU HAVE TO REACT QUICKLY TO ADVANCE ONTO THE ROAD. ANOTHER PROBLEM IS WHEN AT A RED LIGHT WHEN THE LIGHT TURNS GREEN I STEP ON THE GAS NOTHING HAPPENS THEN IT JUMPS AHEAD. I COULD HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME!! I TOOK THE CAR TO MY DEALER IN TENAFLY, N.J. TWO TIMES. THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG BECAUSE IT DIDN'T HAPPEN TO THEM. I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND OTHERS. I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE HAS COMPLAINED. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, STEERING
WE BOUGHT THIS CAR IN MARCH, 2013. NOW IN 2014, WE NOTICED THE AC WASN'T WORKING WE ATTEMPTED TO RECHARGE IT WITH FREON, BUT I WAS TOLD THE COMPRESSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE COMPRESSOR WAS REPLACE, THE CONDENSER, LINES, EX VALVE, EVEN A SENSOR. PRETTY MUCH ALL THE AC SYSTEM HAS BEEN REPLACE. NOW WE HAVE NOTICED THAT ONCE THE COMPRESSOR IS ON. IT CAUSES THE ENGINE TO STALL WHILE DRIVING OR MAKING TURNS. IT FEELS AS IF THE COMPRESSOR WILL CAUSE THE ENGINE TO TURN OFF. AS IF NOT BAD ENOUGH ONCE THE CAR IS ON PARK WITH AC ON THE COMPRESSOR WILL SHUT-OFF AND THE AC WILL START BLOWING A HUMID-SMELLY AIR. ONCE IT DOES THIS, THE COMPRESSOR'S EMERGENCY VALVE WILL OPEN AND FLUSH SOME FREON. IT IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR WITH MY FAMILY IN IT. SPECIALLY NOW THAT I'VE READ ABOUT ALL THE OTHER RECALLS AND COMPLAINS. DOING MY RESEARCH NOW (WHICH IS TOO LATE), I FOUND THAT HONDA WAS SUED DUE TO THIS ISSUE. AC COMPRESSOR MALFUNCTION IS TO BE FOUND IN 02-04 HONDA CRVS. OUR CRV HAS BEEN BACK AT THE MECHANIC 3 TIMES THE LAST MONTH, AND YET THE ISSUE CANT BE RESOLVE. THE MECHANIC SAYS IT HAS TO DO WITH THE WAY THE SYSTEM WAS DESIGN. ALTERNATOR AND COMPRESSOR SHARE THE SAME BAND. I'M AFRAID AND CONCERNED THAT AT SOMEPOINT BOTH THINGS WILL GIVE-OUT WHILE DRIVING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER ON THREE OCCASIONS, BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED. ON ONE OCCASION, THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE STARTER BUT THE FAILURE WAS NOT RECTIFIED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
WHEN I ACCELERATED FROM A STOPPED POSITION AT A STOPLIGHT, MY VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY LOCKED ALL THE DOORS (WHICH IT HAD DONE UPON LEAVING THE PARKING LOT). I THOUGHT THIS STRANGE. THEN I LOOKED AND SAW THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE LOCK UNLOCKED ITSELF AS SOON AS THE DOORS HAD LOCKED. WHEN I STOPPED AGAIN AT ANOTHER LIGHT, IT REPEATED THE PATTERN. DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WAS UNLOCKED, THE CAR LOCKED ALL DOORS, AND THEN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR UNLOCKED ITSELF AGAIN. THIS REPEATS EVERY TIME I STOP ANYWHERE. IT IS NOT SAFE. I AM UNABLE TO KEEP MY DOORS LOCKED WHEN DRIVING. ALSO, IF I LOCK MY CAR WHEN I LEAVE MY VEHICLE, THE ALARM WILL SOUND WITHIN MINUTES DUE TO THE CAR "UNLOCKING" ITSELF AGAIN. I AM UNABLE TO SECURE MY VEHICLE DUE TO THE MALFUNCTIONING FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LOCK. ACCORDING TO RESEARCH, THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAIN THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAS BEEN AWARE OF FOR SEVERAL YEARS. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HAS CONTINUED. I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY FOR REPAIRS, SO I ENDANGER MYSELF AND MY FAMILY EVERY TIME WE TRAVEL IN THIS VEHICLE WITHOUT BEING SECURE WITH PROPER DOOR LOCKS. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND I HEARD MY DOORS LOCK AGAIN. THEY USUALLY ONLY LOCK WHEN I PUT THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE AND NOT AGAIN DURING THAT PARTICULAR TRIP. IT KEPT DOING IT AFTER I WOULD COME TO A STOP AND THEN ACCELERATE. NOW IT MAKES A SCREECHING NOISE EVERYTIME I PUT IT INTO DRIVE. SOMETIMES IT LOCKS, SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. THE DEALER WANTS 330.00 PER DOOR TO CHANGE OUT THE ACTUATOR. I UNDERSTAND HONDA IS INVOLVED IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OVER THIS. I CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHY THEY WOULD NOT ISSUE A VOLUNTARY RECALL OVER THIS. THERE ARE SAFETY ISSUES INVOLVED FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS. HONDA USUALLY HAS A GREAT REPUTATION FOR MAKING A RELIABLE AND AFFORDABLE VEHICLE. THEY SHOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS, NOT THE BOTTOM LINE. THEY WILL LOSE CUSTOMERS... *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
THE RIGHT REAR PASSENGER POWER DOOR LOCK REMAINS IN THE LOCKED POSITION AT ALL TIMES. ANY ATTEMPT TO UNLOCK THE DOOR, EITHER MANUALLY OR REMOTELY, ONLY LASTS FOR A FEW SECONDS AT MOST. THEN THE DOOR IS RELOCKED ELECTRICALLY AND CAN'T BE OPENED FROM NEITHER THE INSIDE NOR OUTSIDE. THE DOOR CAN ONLY BE OPENED BY QUICKLY PULLING THE DOOR LATCH IN BETWEEN AN UNLOCK COMMAND AND THE AUTOMATIC RESET OF THE LOCK. SINCE THE TIME OF THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR ISSUE THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LOCK HAS BEGUN HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

SEATS
I JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE FEW MONTHS AGO. NOTICED AS SOON AS I SAT IN THE DRIVER SEAT, IT WAS VERY LOOSE AND WOBBLY. THE SALESMAN INFORMED ME IT HAD NOT BEEN INSTALLED PROPERLY AT THE FACTORY, AND THE BOLTS HAD CAME LOOSE OR BROKE, BUT THE BOLTS DO NOT LINE UP WITH THE HOLES IN THE SEAT TO HOLD IT IN PLACE. I READ IN THE RECALLS, THAT THIS ISSUE WAS ONLY IN 2 VEHICLES AND THEY HAD BEEN FIXED. THERE ARE DEFINITELY MORE THAN 2 AFFECTED, INCLUDING MINE. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
AS REPORTED BY A NUMBER OF OTHER HONDA CRV OWNERS, MY FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LOCK UNLOCKS ITSELF. I FIRST NOTICED IT AFTER SOMETHING WAS STOLEN FROM MY CAR. I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THAT WAS POSSIBLE BECAUSE I NEEDED TO UNLOCK MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR TO GET INTO THE CAR. I NEVER CHECKED THE PASSENGER DOOR LOCK. I THEN NOTICED THAT THE CAR DOORS CONTINUED TO LOCK AS I WAS DRIVING. I LOOKED OVER AND NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER DOOR LOCK WOULD UNLOCK AS SOON AS IT LOCKED. SO NOW THE LOCK MECHANISM KEEPS TRYING TO LOCK THE DOOR AFTER EVERY STOP. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE AND A RECALL NEEDS TO BE MADE FOR A FAULTY PART. THE SAFETY ISSUE IS THREEFOLD: 1) PREVENTING ITEMS OR THE CAR FROM BEING STOLEN BECAUSE THE CAR CANNOT BE LOCKED; 2) DRIVING IN A LARGE CITY AND NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. I AM FEARFUL THAT SOMEONE COULD ENTER THE CAR WHILE I AM STOPPED IN UNSAFE LOCATIONS; 3) I PARK IN A GARAGE AND SOMETIMES LEAVE LATE IN THE EVENING. I NEED TO MAKE SURE THERE IS NO ONE IN MY CAR NOW BEFORE I ENTER IT. GM WAITED TOO LONG TO RECALL THEIR CARS. I AM ASKING HONDA TO BE MORE PROACTIVE SINCE THIS IS A KNOW ISSUE. I BELIEVE THERE IS A CLASS ACTION SUIT CURRENTLY PENDING FOR THIS ISSUE, SO THERE ARE OBVIOUSLY A LARGE NUMBER OF HONDA OWNERS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE BUT MAY HAVE NOT REPORTED IT HERE. *TR

THE AC COMPRESSOR KNOCKS AS IF IT WANT TO COME OFF THE ENGINE. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING CAUSING TO JERK THE CAR FORWARD WHEN IT KICKS IN, THEN STOPS AND KICKS IN AGAIN SHORTLY THERE AFTER. THE CAR ALMOST STALLED OUT JUST BECAUSE OF THIS. THE ENGINE WORKS HARD AT KEEPING THE COMPRESSOR FROM SHUTTING THE CAR DOWN. ONE OF THESE DAYS IT WILL COME OF THE ENGINE. *TR

WHEELS, TIRES
I CALLED IN A CLAIM/COMPLAINT AROUND JUNE 8 2012 FOR PREMATURE WEAR FOR CONTINENTAL 225/65R17-102T TIRES EQUIPPED ON 2011 HONDA CR-V TO CONTINENTAL &HONDA. CONTINENTAL ADVERTISES TIRES ARE WARRANTED FOR 65,000 MILES OR 6 YEARS. IT BECAME NECESSARY TO REPLACE ALL 4 TIRES 0608/2012 AT 31,463 MILES OR LESS THAN HALF THE EXPECTED LIFE OF THE TIRE BECAUSE THE TIRES CAUSE MY VEHICLE TO FAIL INSPECTION. THE VEHICLE AND TIRES CONSISTENTLY WERE SERVICED BY ACCREDITED HONDA DEALER & TIRE PRESSURE MAINTAINED.BOTH HONDA AND CONTINENTAL REFUSED TO HONOR THE WARRANTY. *TR

JUNE 26, 2014 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, MY HUSBAND AND I WERE DRIVING EAST DOWN HIGHWAY 55 AT AROUND 8A.M. ON JUNE 23, 2014. A DEER CAME OUT QUICKLY FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE CAR AND HIT OUR NEW HONDA CR-V. THE DRIVER'S SIDE WAS QUITE CAVED IN AND MY AIRBAG DEPLOYED. I WAS IN THE PASSENGER'S SIDE. MY HUSBAND'S AIRBAG DID NOT. HE HIT THE STEERING WHEEL WITH HIS SHOULDER. WE WERE QUITE SHOOK UP AND SORE AFTERWARD. THE OFFICER THAT CAME TO FILE THE REPORT MENTIONED THAT HE WAS SURPRISED THAT THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG DID NOT GO OFF AND THAT IN ORDER TO MOVE THE CR-V HE SUGGESTED WE TOW IN CASE THE AIRBAG WOULD STILL GO OFF. THIS SITUATION HAS MADE US QUITE NERVOUS ABOUT DRIVING THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE BECAUSE THE AIRBAG DID NOT GO OFF. WE WOULD APPRECIATE HONDA INVESTIGATING THIS MATTER. WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A VEHICLE THAT IS EQUIPPED PROPERLY SHOULD WE BE IN A COLLISION. AND WE ARE CONCERNED THAT WITH THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE THAT IS NOT THE CASE. PLEASE LET US KNOW WHAT STEPS NEED TO BE TAKEN NEXT, SO THAT WE CAN MOVE FORWARD. SINCERELY, *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
VEHICLE WAS 14 MONTHS OLD AND WAS DRIVEN EVERY 1-2 DAYS. VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AFTER A CALIPER "FROZE" TO THE RIGHT REAR ROTOR AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT IN THE GARAGE. DEALER REPORTED THAT ALL FOUR ROTORS WERE HEAVILY OXIDIZED AND KEPT INSISTING THAT THE CAR MUST HAVE BEEN SITTING FOR MANY WEEKS OR MONTHS. DEALER CLAIMED THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKE PADS AND ONLY RESURFACED THE ROTORS. DEALER REPEATEDLY MADE FALSE CLAIM ABOUT HONDA MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENT THAT THE ROTORS BE CLEANED EVERY YEAR. *TR
